Chapter 3: Tyron

ELAINE'S POINT OF VIEW
I'm here at my condo right now, trying to focus my self about what happened last night. Dad updated me that later we will be having a dinner with the family that I'll be marrying.

Hay, daddy won't let me know pa if sino yung family na yon. I badly want to do a background check. I just want to know if pogi ba, kahit doon na lang babawi, hay.

Someone is ringing my bell and I imidiately open it and saw Evie. She's smiling, actually since last night she keeps teasing me about that man. Ugh, I hate this!

"Here na ang outfit." Nagpasabay kasi ako sa kanya since nasa mall siya kanina and now there are so many paper bags sa braso nito. Ang sabi ko lang naman isang pair lang na magmumuka akong elegant and formal.

"Ofc, you need to be pretty talaga later! Isa pa, sobrang oa mo kaya manamit mamaya e hindi mo pa magustuhan yung bibilhin ko." I just rolled my eyes and help her.

I tried everything and yup I already found something na bagay sa akin. Actually, yeah. Tama siya that hindi ko talaga magugustuhan ang mga bibilhin nito sa akin. Buti na lang talaga that may isa pa akong nagustuhan eh.

"Formal white attire looks good, businesswoman ang atake!" I just rolled my eyes at her.

"Oh, I need to go. Andyan na sa baba si Dexter. Bye, enjoy the dinner date later with your future husband!" She wink at me and I just rolled my eyes again and again. Grabe naman kasi, bakit parang napahamak pa yata ako sa pag-punta ko rito!

It's already 6:00 pm and I'm starting to put some light makeup at me. Ayan, I look pretty.

7:30 pa naman ang start ng dinner but 7:00 na ako aalis, I need to be late hehe.

I'm just scrolling at my phone until my dad calls me and I answer it immediately. "Hey dad!" unang bati ko sa kanya "andito ako sa baba, tara na at isasabay na kita." Girl, I have plans pa naman na magpalate but mapapa-aga pa ata kami.

"Oh, okay coming."

"Okay, honey. Take care." After that, I ended the call at agad na dumeretso pababa and I saw Dad waiting for me in the lobby.

"So gorgeous, manang mana sa mommy!" I just smiled at his compliment. I miss my mom.

"Tse" Dad just laughed at my reaction and then offered his arm at me.

We're already here, waiting at this luxurious restaurant in a VIP room. It's already 7:33 and wala pa sila.

"Dad, they are late for 3 minutes." I look at my watch. I hate late but gusto ko mag-palate kanina. I don't want kasi talaga to be married to a man that I don't even know!

"Let's just wait, anak. Baka ay na-traffic lang." The food is here and it's already 7:35. WHERE THE HELL ARE THEY?!

After the waiter left, agad na nagbukas muli ang pinto. Tatayo sana ako para lapitan sila pero nahulog ang phone ko! Ano ba yan, kakapalit ko lang ng tempered!

Dad greet them and after kong matingnan ang phone ko na ayos lang naman ay agad akong tumayo. I saw a handsome man, sobra sobrang pogi!!!

Wait! Gutom lang ba 'to? or miss ko na Ang baby Tyron ko? Aaahhhh, nababaliw na ako sayo, Tyron!!

Irita akong napa-pikit ng mata at di alam ang gagawin. "Anak, you okay?" Dad asks me and it's not ok!

"Hija, do you want something?" Alalang nagtatanong ang parents nito ni Tyron. My god, pati ang parents ni Tyron nasa imagination ko na rin!

I need to be checked up by a doctor!

"Y-yeah.." I just bite my lips at tinitigan ng mabuti kung si Tyron ba talaga ito.

Nakaupo na sila pagdating ko. Nag-cr lang ako para sampalin ang sarili. God, Wala talaga. Ayaw na umalis ng imagination ko.

"So anak, this is Juarrez family. Bethanie Juarrez, Ben Juarrez and the man that you will marry. Tyron Juarrez." Halos mabilaukan ako sa sariling tubig na iniinom ko. What the hell? Am I really marrying Tyron Juarrez?!?!

"Oh, dahan dahan.." hinagod ni daddy ang likod ko. Damn, I'm not imagining Tyron Infront me!

"Nice to meet you, Elaine Diaz." I just smiled and immediately accepted his mom's handshake offer. "Oh, nice to meet you po!" I smiled at them and I saw Tyron, seryosong seryoso wearing his tuxedo. He's so handsome!

All the time that are parents are keep talking about business and whatever, ang tingin ko lang ay na kay Tryon. Seryoso na kumakain at tila ay walang paki sa amin! AAAAAHHHH LULUHURAN!

"How's your modeling career hija?"  His mom ask. "Doing good naman po, actually I'm on leave lang since I'm done na din naman with my schedule for this month." I just smiled at them pero ang tingin ko ay nasa anak nila na napaka-pogi.

"Ow, so hangang kailan ka lang ba dito? We thought that dito ka na ulit sa Philippines?" omg, what if ma-dissapoint sila? No! Titira ako dito kasama siya, at magpapatira sa kany--

EME!

"Umm actually, 1 week lang po talaga dapat ako dito but since dad and I talked about this marriage I've already made a plan to stay here for at least a month pa but yeah, I'm still gonna do some photoshoot sa New York!" They smiled at me, hay sana ngitian lang din ako ni Tyron.

"Oh, actually nga hija. Grabe ang mga photos mo! So good at modeling!" I smiled at them "Thank you po!" We we're talking about life and  business and then hangang sa natapos na but Tyron is still silent at his seat. Ang narinig ko lang ay ang pag-hinga nito at ang pag-bati nya kay dad.

"Anak, won't you mind na ipa-sundo na lang kita kay manong Nastor?" Dad asked me in front of the Juarrez "Oh why po? Is there any problem po ba?" He shrugs his head as a no. "I need to go to the office to fix some papers, it's already madilim na, and I don't want you to take a taxi." I'm about to agree with what Dad told me ng sumingit ang ama nito ni Tyron.

"Nako! Hayaan na natin si Tyron ang maghatid sa kanya, right Tyron?" Tumingin kaming lahat sa kanya, I feel na gusto nyang humindi pero he has no choice kundi ang pumayag!

"Dad--" his words we're cut off by his dad "She's a woman at magiging asawa mo, sige na. Ihatid mo na siya."  After that ay nagpaalam na kami at sabay na lumabas ng restaurant. We we're waiting nga sa car nito at hangang sa dumating na ito sa harap namin.

I thought at first na pagbubuksan ako ng pinto nito pero girl, dumeretso lang siya sa may drivers seat kaya naman ay binuksan ko na lang ang door sa may front seat.

"Bakit andyan ka??" He asks me while his kilay is nakataas, he's so pogi talaga!

I'M BLIND, I LOVE RED!!
